About Ringo
“Ringo was born from the experience of watching my beloved dog, Ringo, navigate epilepsy - and realizing there should be a better way to manage it.”
Freeman LaFleur, Founder
Our Mission
Canine epilepsy is more common than most people realize - affecting approximately 0.75% of dogs. For owners, it can be isolating, overwhelming, and scary. We built Ringo to change that.
Ringo is a free app and web community that helps dog owners track seizures, manage medications, understand triggers, and connect with others who truly understand what they’re going through.
What We Believe
Compassion First
Every feature is designed with empathy — for the moments when you're scared, exhausted, or just need support.
Privacy Matters
Your data is yours. We don't sell it and we don't share it. All posts are anonymous.
Offline by Default
Seizures don't wait for WiFi. Core logging works completely offline and syncs when you have a connection.
Community Over Competition
This isn't a social network. It's a support circle for people navigating one of the hardest things a pet owner faces.
Data-Driven Care
Environmental data, trigger analysis, and exportable reports help you and your vet make better decisions.
Free Forever
Ringo is free because every dog deserves good care, regardless of their owner's budget. No paywalls, ever.
Important Disclaimer
Ringo is a journaling and community tool - not a medical device. It does not provide veterinary diagnoses, treatment recommendations, or medical advice. Always consult with a licensed veterinarian for decisions about your dog’s health and treatment plan.
